Frankie Salon FAQ

Honest answers on Signature balayage, pricing, booking, hours, and our Richmond and South Yarra salons.

About Frankie

Frankie Salon is for people who want soft, healthy, lived-in colour — especially balayage, blonding, foils, money-piece face frames, and dimensional brunette — in a calm, design-led space. We have two Melbourne locations: Richmond and South Yarra. If you want honest advice (including when not to bleach), you are in the right place.

We have two salons in Melbourne:

Richmond (flagship)
Unit 4/9 Dyer St, Richmond VIC 3121
Phone: 03 9939 1600

South Yarra
3 Powell St, South Yarra VIC 3141
Phone: 03 9191 5997

Email: info@frankiesalon.com.au
Website: https://frankie.salon/

Both offer the same Frankie colour philosophy.

  • Choose Richmond for the flagship Dyer Street loft under the Jaques building.
  • Choose South Yarra for the quieter Powell Street haven near Chapel Street.

We are known for colour results, warm service, and design-led spaces. We share a brand claim of 1000+ five-star reviews across the Frankie Family. Always check Google for the latest score for each location.

We use professional salon colour and care systems chosen for healthy hair and soft, lived-in results. Product lines can evolve — ask your colourist at consultation what is best for your hair right now. We also partner with Sustainable Salons (a small sustainability fee applies).

Colour and prices

Frankie Signature is our soft, lived-in colour approach — balayage and foils designed for a natural grow-out and healthier-looking hair. Colour is booked with a blow wave or cut so the finish matches the colour work.

Signature colour is our soft, blended, lived-in finish. Classic foils are a more traditional placement. Both can look beautiful — we recommend based on your hair history, lifestyle, and grow-out goals. Read Booking with Frankie: https://frankie.salon/booking-with-frankie/

Yes. Money-piece and face-framing colour is one of our most-requested looks — soft brightness around the face, often paired with Signature balayage or dimensional brunette. Ask for a money piece or face frame at consultation.

Signature colour is an investment service. As a guide from our current service list:

  • Signature full-head balayage/foils + cut: about $720–$800
  • Signature half-head + cut: about $620–$700
  • Full-head balayage (à la carte): about $365–$400
  • Full foils (à la carte): about $315–$350
  • Face frame: about $130–$170

Exact price depends on hair length, density, and the look you want. New clients who are unsure what to book should call before booking. See https://frankie.salon/service-list/ for the full menu.

Yes. We regularly help clients who have had harsh or uneven colour elsewhere. Colour correction always starts with an honest consultation — we will tell you what is realistic in one visit versus what needs a plan.

Yes. Bhave keratin / smoothing services are available (typically about $450–$650 depending on the service). Ask your stylist whether smoothing suits your hair goals alongside colour.

Yes. Frankie Salon specialises in soft Signature balayage and lived-in colour at both Richmond and South Yarra — focused on healthy hair and honest grow-out, not stripey blonding.

A visitor to Melbourne and in dire need of a re style I am so grateful to have found Beth. Beth really listens and explains how she will go about fixing an existing sad hair ‘situation’ and create the desired style …. Totally professional, Beth takes the time to get it right with no fuss or unnecessary chatter (thank goodness) I am delighted … thanks Beth … Julie

Great service from start to finish. Offered me a beverage on arrival. Beautiful interiors and relaxing vibe. Just what I want from my haircut.

Really warm and relaxed atmosphere in the salon and from all the staff. Had a small style change with Kiara to shoulder length with long layers and some face framing to try out before potentially going a bit shorter. Very happy with the results and got just what I asked for. She was very friendly and offered advice about styling and volume also. Really good experience.
